On the reaction day the stock moved 0.1 pts less than its Household Appliances peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.
Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Q2 consolidated revenue rose 21% to Rs 2,930.95 crore from Rs 2,422.37 crore, and profit after tax rose 25% to Rs 123.91 crore. Half-year revenue was Rs 6,308.87 crore, up 16.7%, while profit after tax was Rs 226.42 crore, up 3.1%. Results included Rs 32.19 crore of one-off gains from the Medtech business sale and property sale. The operating margin before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation fell to 6.91% from 7.57%. The auditor review was unmodified.
Revenue and profit growth is positive, but lower operating margins and reliance on one-off gains weaken earnings quality; the stock reaction may be mixed.
